Had a player fake a tag t'other night at 3B. Runner did not slide and easily scored.
I called time and walked to youthful [19-22] F5 and asked him if that feint was legal in "this league", knowing that most of the players had jobs in the morning.
Grizzled F6 comes over and asks what's up.
I told F6 and he retorted, "He's young."
F5 was straightned out in the dugout during the next 1/2-inning.

Mick,
Sorry, but I don't quite get the point you are trying to make. Are you suggesting that there is no rule against a "fake tag" in OBR leagues, but the guy's teammates let him know that
it shouldn't be done in OBR leagues whose players have day jobs?
I had a similar situation a couple nights ago. Nothing was called and the next time up, the offending shortstop took a fastball in the kidney.
